It’s the Management (Free verse) by Dovina

Down the stairs we tramped floor by floor fifty to go just precaution because of some shaking. Loudspeaker says, “Go back! Earthquake over. All clear. That fire you see in the North Tower has no effect here.” Our boss man says, “Go down” so we continue remain in file choosing years of admiration over a loudspeaker. floor by floor forty to go facing upbound employees who call it a joke and say, “Go back.” Later we watch from blocks away workers for lesser bosses come tumbling down.

Look, I know you stopped listening to me a while ago, but listen now:

I'm a trained feminist critic. That probably doesn't mean much to you, but it SHOULD mean I know how to handle the business of talking about whether things are sexist or not. I don't know what your job is, but I imagine it has something to do with handling money, and if I showed you a handful of quarters you'd probably be able to say 'that's not gonna be change for $100'. This is the same thing. -=Dark_Angel=-,P.I. is right, the poem is sexist regardless of its basis in real life, and you are more sexist than he is. Which is sad as your a bint and one lacking any other desirable attributes.
